Bio Planète Organic Vital Oils
Are you also enthusiastic about fields with light blue flowers? Only a few people know that flax is grown there. Any child could have answered this question 150 years ago. The ancient cultivated plant is also known as common flax or linseed (Linum usitatissimum). Fibers for textile production were obtained from the flax stalks and valuable linseed oil was pressed from the seeds. In the Middle Ages, the versatile plant was grown almost everywhere in Germany. From the 20th century onwards, flax was largely replaced in the textile industry by cotton and synthetic fibers. As flax cultivation in Europe came to an almost complete standstill afterwards, the useful plant was forgotten in many places. For some decades, however, there has been a turnaround, because more and more people are discovering the benefits of linseed oil for themselves.
Flaxseed oil has been omnipresent for centuries. Knights and mercenaries rubbed their armor and swords with linseed oil to protect them from rust. Artists painted their canvases with linseed oil paint and then protected their work with linseed oil varnish. Craftsmen used the oil pressed from linseed as a natural protection for framework, wooden facades and window frames. Linseed oil was not only found in workshops and armories, but also in the kitchen, because linseed was already used in ancient times as a means of increasing physical strength.
Linseed oil has a particularly high content of the polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid. It cannot be produced by the organism itself, but is, among other things, needed for building the cells. The body also needs alpha-linolenic acid to produce anti-inflammatory substances. In nature, omega-3 fatty acids are mainly found in fatty fish.Thanks to linseed oil, vegetarians and vegans can also consume this essential fatty acid naturally. Linseed oil can be taken in pure, but it also refines dressings, mueslis, smoothies and vegetable dishes. At Bio Planète you will find high-quality Organic Vital Oils such as linseed oil, linseed oil mixtures and other valuable vegetable oils.
The Bio Planète Organic Vital Oils are the ideal supplement for conscious connoisseurs. They are ideal for refining hot and cold dishes. The Organic Flaxseed Oil owes its particularly mild taste to a special 3D filtration process. Since some people find the taste of pure linseed oil too intense, Bio Planète has innovative Organic Linseed Oil Mixes in its range. In the Bio Planète Omega Red Organic Linseed Oil Mix finely ground, dried strawberries and mangos as well as mild linseed oil are combined to create a summery, stimulating taste experience. The Omega Blue Organic Linseed Oil Mix is a dietary supplement with DHA-rich algae oil. The fruity-sweet taste of the Omega Orange Organic Linseed Oil Mix comes from pollen, orange oil and pomegranate seed oil. In the Omega Pink Organic Linseed Oil Mix finely ground raspberries in combination with the stimulating taste of cinnamon bark oil and a touch of pepper and turmeric create a fruity, slightly spicy taste experience.
